Hello dr, how to know which part of my thighs are muscle and which fat? thanks

Flex muscle: If you flex muscles they become tense. Fat doesn't. See a picture of of your thigh muscles on a google image search. If it dimples or jiggles it is fat! Here are some exercises. http://www.dailyhiit.com/hiit-blog/hiit-workout/lower-body-workouts/inner-thigh-rehab-guide/
